Haha you really think the club will turn down 55m because Pep says so?

Deluded

yes of course if we think it leaves us short for the season. you are the one deluded. we value trophies more than money.

ya Alvarez is nowhere our level and hence why pep is willing to bin off sterling and put him in the team instead. It is very clear that because we are very will to let sterling go this year without a replacement because pep already thinks alvarez is an upgrade on sterling.

This. People are forgetting Pep is willing to let Sterling go. He would’ve kept him as a squad player, but the truth is Sterling played a lot games less last season, and he brought in Alvarez to bolster the attack. That should show everyone where this is going. He is sick and tired of Sterling freezing time and time again in front of a keeper, stopping promising counter attacks and his absolutely awful finishing. It’s laughable he has made so much money week in, week out, despite all of this. Pep and the City board finally came to their senses, but it took them long enough. This is an upgrade to our team, absolutely no doubt about it.

Bwahahahahahaha.

Absolutely clueless

Alvarez has nothing to do with Sterling staying or going.

I have already explained why it has everything to do with it.

@mancity currently has no plans to replace Raheem Sterling, but will look to replace Nathan Ake if he decides to leave.

Bad news.

Depends how you look at it.

I see it as an opportunity that Palmer can take full advantage of.

because pep is willing to let go sterling and have alvarez instead. that should say it really.

Couldn’t that be because he believes Palmer is ready to step up?

It really isn’t.

We have Phillips/rodri deep

Bernardo/de bruyne/Gundogan for the other two spots

Foden/grealish/mahrez for the wide spots

Haaland/Alvarez up top.

Plus Cole palmer coming through.

Alvarez will probably play as more of a wide attacker anyway which means we have 4.

well said. that is what I am trying to explain to bluemoon residents here as well

What has Alvarez done that makes you think he is better than Sterling?

Just looking at his finishing abilities and his overall football style should reveal this. I’m surprised people can’t see it. Sterling has been surrounded with the best striker in prem history, the best midfielders in premier league history. Of course he would rack up goals and assists. But put Alvarez in this company and you will see him absolutely flourish. I can’t wait.

He needs one season with less competion for playing time to prove himself, can some fans give him that chance before clamoring for Sterling replacement?
